Investigators with the Tuscaloosa Fire and Rescue Service and Tuscaloosa Police Department believe that Danny Savarys Nevels, 22, set fire to the porch of a home in the 3000 block of Fourth Street at 8:30 a.m. last Friday.

“Witnesses said that they saw the suspect running away from the house and smoke coming from the house,” said Tuscaloosa Police spokesman Sgt. Brent Blankley.

Wood on the front porch and metal entrance doors were damaged by the fire.

No one was home at the time, he said. Nevels is involved in a domestic relationship with the victim, he said.
